INTRODUCTION
This programme booklet is designed to provide information for parents and
students about the programme of studies offered at Bell High School. The
education program for all students should reflect their academic ability as
well as their expectations of achievement. The course choices made by an
individual student will have a great influence on his or her future plans.
Decisions should be made carefully.
C
The ultimate responsibility for decisions concerning the choice of program
O
rests with parents and students. School personnel, and in particular the
counsellors in the Guidance department, are prepared to offer advice to
Lj
parents and/or students.
;R
The Ontario Ministry of Education in establishing diploma requirements
recognizes the importance of national priorities such as personal physical
E
fitness, an understanding of both English and French languages, and an
awareness of Canada's heritage. Students should keep these priorities in
mind and include them in their programmes. The courses offered at Bell
have been developed according to the requirements of the Ministry of
A
Education and are available to students of both sexes. Courses of study are
on file in the office for parents and students to examine.
L
The Ontario Ministry of Education has recently published new regulations
'E
concerning the programme requirements for Secondary School Graduation
;N
Diplomas. These regulations are contained in the Ministry of Education
D
Document Ontario Schools: Intermediate and Senior Divisions (OSIS).

OBJECTIVES OF BELL HIGH SCHOOL
1. To create a friendly, co-operative atmosphere which is conducive to
j
excellence in learning.
N
2. To provide for learning programmes to meet the individual needs of
F
the students.
3. To provide a programme of equal opportunity to all students.
R
M
4. To involve the community in the life of the school.
A
5. To encourage the development of human relationships and personal
'r
responsibility in staff and students.

GENERAL INFORMATION
ACHIEVEMENT
Education is a process of learning that requires continuity in and exposure to
Students must learn to work not only as individuals

but also with others. The ability to work for others - both adults and peers -
is an essential ingredient of the learning process.
COURSE CANCELLATION
I
N Any of the courses listed may be cancelled if there is insufficient enrolment.
0 PLANNING A STUDENT PROGRAMME
R There are several principles to be considered in planning individual
M programmes for students.
A
T Course Selection
I Students should be advised to take courses that will allow them to capitalize
0 on their abilities, interests, needs, and educational goals without
N unnecessarily limiting their future educational and occupational choices.
Courses must be selected to include required subjects. Courses must also
be chosen to satisfy other diploma requirements if students wish to qualify
for the Secondary School Graduation Diploma (SSGD - grade 12) or the
Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD - new Grade 12 or 13).
Students in grades 9 - 11 are required to take a full programme. Students in
grade 12 may take one course less than a full programme if it does not
jeopardize their chances of graduating. O.A.C. students should take
sufficient courses to graduate within one year.
ATTENDANCE
2
Regular attendance on the part of students is vital to the process of learning.
When the processes and content of learning are disrupted by irregular
attendance, both the individual student and the class suffer a loss of
experiences that cannot be entirely replaced. Students who habitually miss a
C
class suffer in the evaluation process because their achievement cannot be
O
assessed.
U
Where attendance has been identified as an essential component of the
R
course and where a student, with his/her parents, has been appropriately
counselled and provided with support and direction to promote regular
S
attendance in the course, and where the student is still unwilling to attend
E
regularly, such a student will normally fail to achieve a credit for the course.
C
CODE OF BEHAVIOUR
A
In order to develop a spirit of harmony and mutual respect, the Code
L
of Behaviour stresses common sense, courtesy and cooperation. The Code
E
of Behaviour is a guide to assist in the learning of respect for property, for
self and for others.
N
D
A synopsis of the Code of Behaviour is contained in the Student
Handbook which is given to each student at the beginning of the school
A
year.
R
COURSE CANCELLATION

T Course Selection
I Students should be advised to take courses that will allow them to capitalize

N unnecessarily limiting their future educational and occupational choices.

be chosen to satisfy other diploma requirements if students wish to qualify

grade 12 may take one course less than a full programme if it does not
jeopardize their chances of graduating. O.A.C. students should take
sufficient courses to graduate within one year.
The principal and staff will make recommendations regarding the selection
of courses. Such advice should have a significant influence on the choices
made by students with the approval of their parents. However, students
and their parents have the right to make alternative course selections 3
provided that the diploma requirements are being met. Students who have
attained the age of majority may accept responsibility for their own
curricular choices.
Grade 8 Students and Parents: Course Selection
Assistance from teachers, counsellors, and the principal of the elementary
school that the student is attending should be sought when courses are
selected. They are the people who see the students regularly and can tell
how difficult certain subjects will be for particular students. They can
recommend subjects that will be best suited to individual students and their
career goals and ensure that the diploma requirements with regard to
required subjects and areas of study are met. A careful study of previous
report cards may provide further clues to course selection for students.
Parents are reminded that although the final selection of courses is their
responsibility, Bell High School staff is available for consultation when
selecting courses.
Enrichment Opportunities
There are many enrichment learning opportunities at Bell High School.
Some offerings fall within the curriculum and these courses are indicated
with an "E" or a "G" as the 6th character in the course code.

A record of courses successfully completed and credits gained towards the
requirements for the OSSGD, the OSSHGD or the OSSD, or the Certificate
of Education is maintained on what is known as an Ontario Student
Transcript. Marks are recorded in percentage grades only. If a student
gains a minimum
of 8 credits in either business studies or technical studies a special note is
made of this on the Ontario Student Transcript.
SPECIAL DEPARTMENTS AND SERVICES
GUIDANCE
The Guidance Program is a vital and integral part of the total school
curriculum. It is a composite of the school's instructional, counselling,
consultation, co-ordination, and liaison activities that are planned and
implemented to assist student orientation, program selection, and
preparation of the next level of study or entry to the working world. Thus,
the provision and maintenance of an effective guidance program is essential
to all students.
Our aims are to provide students with opportunities to:
expand their knowledge and understanding of themselves and
develop an appreciation of their individual potential to contribute to
society.
develop an understanding of effective relationships.
develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to make
appropriate post -secondary decisions and to cope with the transition
from secondary school to post -secondary studies and the world of
work.
explore potential careers in relation to themselves, educational
alternatives, and their desired lifestyles.
The Guidance Department will provide the following services:
- up-to-date education and career information (e.g. Student Guidance
Information Service)
- small group sessions, e.g. Sessions On Study
- credit course in Career Education

either the Special Education Resource Unit or the Learning Disabilities
Unit to receive direct, individualized instruction. The personnel in Special
Education also aid in developing and modifying courses for
exceptional
students in consultation with subject teachers.
C
Special Education staff assess students to determine their learning abilities
Q
and to determine the appropriateness of special programming. Referrals for
U
assessment and admission to instructional programmes in Special Education
may be made by subject teachers, guidance counsellors,
R
parents, or the
student themselves.
ES
Where a student's special needs and/or timetablingmake it appropriate,

The Department of English offers interesting and challengi-g
investigations into the study of language and literature. Careful
efforts have been made to tailor every course of study to the
current needs of students. Through your years at Bell, your
skills in reading, writing, listening, speaking and viewing will
be refined and extended with the expectation that your entry into
the world of work or the world of further education will be as
smooth as possible.
We offer courses at three different levels: the General, the
Advanced and the Basic. General level courses provide students
with a practical knowledge of English language and literature.
Such courses are designed for students who do not attempt the
OAC(Grade 13) level or University but who may wish to proceed
directly to the world of work or to community college after
graduation. For students who entered high school on or after
September 1984, the fifth English credit is offered at the grade
10 level (EWR2G) and at grade 12(EBS4G). Our Advanced courses
prepare students for the Ontario Academic Course in English, for
post -secondary education, or for students who wish to proceed
directly to industry or business after grade 12. The emphasis
for Advanced students is on a high standard of writing profi-
ciency. The fifth English credit (exclusive of OAC) may be achi-
eved at the grade 10 level (EWR2A) or at grade 12 (EBS4A).
The course offered for the Basic student is designed to en-
hance self-worth, life skills and skills in language and liter-
ature.
This is a time of transition between the new and old
requirements in the accumulation of credits for graduation.
Please consult your guidance counsellor to determine your
personal directions.

In September of 1988 all students will receive a clear descrip-
tion of the evaluation which will be followed through the year.
This description will reflect, to some extent, the new direction
in evaluation as expressed by the Ministry. Students should keep
in mind that just as changes in course content and methodology
will be modified on an incremental basis so too will student
evaluation.
Mid -Term Evaluation (for semestered students)
It is important to be aware that a mid-term report will be issued
in each semester. This is a Progress Report only and may not be
an accurate assessment because of the evaluation structure
imposed by the Ministry. By mid-term, for example, marks for the
examination and independent study will not be available. Caution
is advised, therefore, not to place an inordinate faith in the
mid-term progress mark.
ENG1B BASIC ENGLISH 1 credit

comprehension and writing skills. Vocabulary study, language

for reading, appreciation of literature, analytical and critical
thought, and effective writing. The courses are intended to
refine and extend skills and knowledge in the following areas:
- speaking and writing proficiency;
- response to literature and the articulation of this response;
- enjoyment and appreciation of literature and the development of
a reading habit;
- understanding of language, its nature and functions;
- independence in reading, thought and expression.

HCNOA CANADA IN A NORTH AMERICAN PERSPECTIVE (O.A.C.) 1 Credit
(Prerequisite: one advanced senior social science.)
'.,lhy does Canada exist? This question cannot be answered without
55
also considering the related problem: Why does the United Sates
exist? Indeed, why are there two nations on this continent
rather than just one? Why are we not simply swallowed up by our
powerful neighbour to the south? These questions of identity and
existence form the central themes of this O.A.C. Course.
Through a combination simulation games, films, group discussions, H
research, and lectures students will discover the depth and I
dimensions of these themes. In addition, the option of going on
a five day field trip to the United States to tour Washington, S
D.C., Gettysburg, and Williamsburg is open to students enrolled T
in this course. O
The course also has the objective of teaching students the skills R
essential for success and enjoyment in post -secondary schools. Y
Students will learn how to get the most out of lectures. They
will discover how to make tutorial groups rewarding and how to
read, write and reason effectively. &
Students will discover how the Canadian and the American
historical experience on this contenent compares. Were the S
French colonies of Canada a viable society when compared with the O
vibrant British colonies of America? Although Canada was invited
to join in the American Revolution the offer was refused. Why?
Why have we been able to build and keep a nation without serious I
conflict or a bloody war while our neighbours could not? Why A
have we not developed into the economic and military superpower T
that the United States has? L
In short, why are we Canadians and they Americans?

ONTARIO ACADEMIC CREDITS IN MATHEMATICS
The aim of the OAC courses in mathematics is to assist each
student to:
-understand the principles and substantive content of
mathematics;
-develop proficiency in those mathematical skills commonly
applied in mathematics and related disciplines at the
university level;
-develop problem -solving abilities;
-extend communication skills involving the use of the
language and notation of mathematics;
-develop an appreciation for the role of proof in the study
and application of mathematics.
The mathematics department urges students to carefully read the
perequisites for the university programmes of their choice.
Although, no university requires all three mathematics OAC
courses for any programme, we strongly recommend that students
entering a mathematics, physical science, or engineering
programme at university opt to take all three OAC courses in
Mathematics.
The Finite Mathematics OAC includes a number of topics that will
be useful for students entering a commerce major with emphasis on
economics and statistics. Hence, these students should, also,
consider the possibility of taking all three OAC courses in
Mathematics.

house to a given scale from basement to roof. In this phase of
woodworking students will be required to frame a structure
completely and accurately so it could pass a building inspection.
Cabinet Making. Students must be able to plan and layout all
aspects of a cabinet type project before work can begin. They
will be solely responsible for the accuracy of the project and
its design. The cabinet project should include use of all major
machines and include intricate joinery to develop competence with
these fits. The student's work will be evaluated on how closely
the finished product reflects the original design.
